Polished transcript:

Male Female

I attended one of my relative's weddings in 10th grade. It is the most memorable wedding because it is different from my culture. I was brought up in Tamil Nadu, so I know the Tamil culture of my state. However, the wedding was held in Bangalore, and the bride's family is also from Bangalore. The rituals and some traditional ceremonies are different from my culture, which is why they were quite exciting. The day before the wedding, I went to the airport to receive the groom's brother. It was the first time I had been to an airport. That is one of the most unforgettable memories from that wedding; he brought some chocolates and candies. After that, the Nalangu function was quite exciting. We made some fun memories with the bridegroom. That evening, we went to the hotel room, which was near the wedding hall. The ambience of the marriage hall was also interesting. The decoration was done with colorful flowers. They arranged a separate way for the bride and bridegroom. The floral arch was unique and gorgeous. I still remember how they arranged it, and I could feel the fragrance. The food served at the wedding was also delicious, featuring Indian cuisine with a variety of flavors, including a separate buffet for children.
